The Beast set a little away from Rex but kept staring at him like Rex had borrowed 10,000 top grade spirit stones from him and was planning to run away when it was time to pay it backAfter two hours Rex opened his eyes and sighed
"So You Didn"t Find It Out After All" The Beast spoke
"He is a talent so killing him would be a big waste.. but if he revealed my location then it will be a big problem for me he might not want to betray me right now
But he is still young it won"t be strange if his heart is swayed by enough benefits or threats now what should I do kill him or not" The Beast thought
"It"s not that I can"t find its cure but I lack knowledge… I actually tasted the poison to find out what it was made of.. it might sound stupid to you but it"s true you can call it my specialty or talent after checking it I found about the things used to make it but the problem is many of the things used to make this poison are something I never even heard of
The same problem occurred when I was trying to make a cure for it my current knowledge on herbs is not enough if only I knew of... Huh?" Rex was just speaking but he saw that the Beast waved his paw and a big book which was around 10 cm thick and two jade slips appeared out of nowhere and fell in front of him
"This Is The Limited Platinum Edition OF Herbs Encyclopedia Issued By Alchemist Tower And The Jade Slips Are From My Clan They Too Contain A Lot Of Information Related To Herbs Take It, We Have A Lot Of Time Here So You Can Study Them As You Like," The Beast said lazily
"Alchemist Tower? so he admits it now, he is definitively from higher realm.. but limited edition and platinum..daf.u.k it means… but I have to say that my fate is really twisted even if I blindly walk on the streets of the city I might encounter a world cla.s.s criminal or a legendary hero...
That aside where is his storage ring I wonder how many treasures he had in it.. wait don"t be greedy Rex he could detect lies if he asked.. do you want to steal my treasure then I am done for" (Rex)
Rex scanned the jade slips and book then he started to flip pages inside the book to act like he was reading but he had already started to work on the cure again
Earlier he had almost formulated the cure while he was in enlightenment condition but it had some loopholes because he could not found some appropriate herbs to fill the shortcomings in it
"This poison is surely very old... some of the things used to make it are already extinct that"s why it is so hard to make its cure but I can use Trans.m.u.tate and Atomize on some different herbs and use them as an alternative to make its cure" (Rex)
Rex spent a total of four hours to complete the recipe, it was almost evening when Rex closed the book in his hands and walked towards the Beast
The Beast opened his eyes when he felt Rex coming towards him, he was just about to speak but Rex spoke first
"I finalized the recipe.. as long as I can make it I am 96% sure you will be cured," Rex said with a serious expression
The Beast kept staring for a while then an expression of shock appeared on his face but then he calmed down
"My Truth Seeker didn"t react he is not lying" The Beast thought
"So What Do You Need To Make It," He asked
Even if Rex had really found out the recipe it doesn"t mean that he is already cured it was just the first step although he had many questions like how did he read the whole book so fast but he was sure Rex was not lying
"Let"s see the list is quite big the first is .. Azure Spirit Lotus.." Just when Rex said that, the Beast waved his paw and a beautiful azure colored lotus appeared before Rex
"Second is Spirit Rainbow Gra.s.s" Rex just said it and the Beast again took out a herb which had seven long leaves with seven different color
Whenever Rex spoke the name of a herb the Beast easily took it out, at one point Rex even doubted if he had a whole herbal garden inside him
The list contained 245 different herbs and the Beast had 235 of them, he didn"t had the rest of the ten herbs not because they were of high grade but they were of very low value in his eyes
"Out of last 10 herbs 8 are normal herbs that can be bought with money but the remaining two are rare spirit herbs even if they are low grade spirit herbs," Rex said
"I Can"t Leave This Forest SO You Need To Find Them On Your Own, I Promise You If You Can Really Cure My Poison Then Middle Realm Aside Even In Higher Realm No One Will Touch You On My Watch Except That I Will Also Give You A Satisfactory Reward," The Beast said
"How can you protect me when you yourself got poisoned and tasted defeat," Rex said
Right now Rex was not afraid about offending him because he had the cure
"Defeat Me? You Don"t Know But The People That Could Fight Against Me In Same Cultivation Realm Can Be Counted On The Fingers Of One Hand
As For How I Got Poisoned My Enemies Planned Really Deep Even The One Who Gave Me The Poison Didn"t Knew That The Inner Most Layer Of The Pill Was Poison Itself
And The Pill Was Famous For His Strong Smell Coupled With The Colorless And Tasteless Poison It Was Already Too Late When I Figured It Out, Once I Am Cured Its Their Death" The Beast said in an angry tone
According to Rex, there were many loopholes in his story but he knew asking too much won"t do any good for him so he refrained himself from asking too many questions
"Good now I got my first higher realm backer... I wonder if he is strong enough to go against mother but I shouldn"t reveal too much about my background who knows if he had some grudge against the Sura Clan and target me for that" (Rex)
"So you gonna let me go just like that, no vows no contract?" Rex asked
"There Is No Need For That If You Really Betray Me Then You Can"t Escape," The Beast said
"Did it do something to me?.. Rose didn"t warned me so either I can"t detect it or he is bluffing" (Rex)
"By the way what should I call you, the king of the forest is too long for a name," Rex asked
"Zakiya... It"s My Name, You Can Call Me The Great Zakiya, Immortal Zakiya Or The Ruler Of Terror you can also call me with my t.i.tled name The Bl.." The Beast puffed his chest out and started to tell his great names
"I think Zakiya is fine in exchange you can also call me just by my first name .. Rex" Rex interrupted him as he was not interested in hearing his whole name because it was almost night
"Why Should I Put My Name On Same Value As Yours?" Zakiya asked in dissatisfaction
"Because I got the cure," Rex said with a smug face
"I want to beat him" Zakiya thought as he looked at his smug face but he held back in the end
"How would I contact you in the future," Rex asked
"I only have one communication jade bracelet but I can"t use it because there is a risk of them finding out my location through it so you have to come here if you want to talk about something," Zakiya said
